missycandy,
not sure u into chinese medical herbs.
last time when #1 teething, i rub the 'ba bao san' powder bot from yu ren sheng on her gums everyday, like brushing teeth la.
or if u want try those angmoh kind, there is some teething gel, that apply on the gums, think will make the gums numb (sorry not sure correct or not), so not so painful. this gel i din use, cos dun like the idea of numbing the gums.
then if bb dun wan drink, dun force her, no choice, as long as she is happy can liao.
ooo watch out for fever hor.
take care!
